Description

Thornhill Hall is a detached house that dates back to the 17th century, though it has been significantly altered and expanded in 1879 in a similar style. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed stone and features quoins. It has a stone slate roof with gable copings on cut kneelers topped with finials from the 19th century. The house is two storeys high, with the original section running east-west and the 19th-century additions extending at a right angle to the north. The west gable includes a prominent 5-light double chamfered window on both the ground and first floors, along with a 2-light window at the apex, all adorned with drip moulds. Other windows, primarily from the 19th century, are in a similar style and include transoms with 4, 6, 8, and 10 lights. The date can be found on the north gable.
